From OLPC

This is a wiki, or publicly editable website, about the One Laptop per Child association and its projects. The wiki focuses on children's education, access to networks of collaboration, and access to knowledge in every region, in the local langugae, and for every age range and subject matter.

Articles about regions or groups address how they are engaged in these issues, and what current resources and collaborations are available there. Articles about people and institutions address what they are working on in these areas. Articles about topics, libraries, and websites address what material is available about or from them for the many target audiences.

Sharing information

This wiki is a tool for the community, to share information about their work and projects, to exchange ideas and get feedback from passers-by, and to provide shared space for people working on many aspects of education to discuss how to improve education and build informed communities through better collaboration and connection.

Related essays and projects are welcome here, from technical to epistemological.
Every page invites comments; you can discuss pages via the discussion tab found at the top of each page. If you are new to wikis, see Wiki getting started for a tutorial.

Pages with the green {{OLPC}} banner at the top—such as this one—are monitored by the OLPC team and representative of the current state of the project; other pages may be slightly less up-to-date. You are welcome to edit and add information to OLPC-monitored pages.

Editing
